Chapter: 1435 (2/2)

At the same time when Qing Shui was looking at the portrait, the Demon Lord also took a look, but she did not say anything.

“This Portrait, can I have it?” Qing Shui asked as he looked at the Demon Lord.

“The box is also yours.” Demon Lord said directly.

“I’ll give you some drawings, do you want them?” Qing Shui thought for a bit and said.

“I don’t want it!” The Demon Lord said swiftly.

“What if the drawing is you?” Qing Shui directly took out a stack of drawings, the one on top was directly displayed towards the Demon Lord.

To reach the level of Drawing Souls, Qing Shui’s artistic abilities in his current drawings were indistinguishable from the craftsmanship of the Portraits of Beauty.

This was something that Qing Shui had drawn recently. Each drawing had different expressions.

The Demon Lord could not help but to reach out her hand and receive it. She had never seen her own portrait. She had never asked anyone to draw her, as even those who had seen her would not be able to draw her. Besides, most people didn’t know what she looks like since she would mostly wear a veil or a conical bamboo hat.

She also did not use a mirror that much. To suddenly see a portrait of herself felt like meeting a stranger as she hadn’t seen her own face in a very long time. She was a natural born beauty. Women from the previous life would not head out without makeup, but she did not have that sort of worry.

She looked at them one after the other. There were ones where she was eating and there quite a few others too. These actions of her were all from recent times. She knew that these were all drawn by Qing Shui and to be able to draw her to this level, his drawing expertise must be very high. She could tell from a glance, it was at a level that could capture the essence and expression of the person since her own drawing technique used to be very good. This also required deep feelings towards the person…

When the Demon Lord was done looking at them, she raised her head to look at Qing Shui. Qing Shui also just looked at her, he could not figure out what she was thinking.

Grateful?

Not.

Emotional?

Not likely also.

…….

“You are no longer allowed to draw me. These, I will confiscate,” the Demon Lord said and took all the drawings.

Qing Shui looked at her, stunned. He had thought of 800 different reactions but this certainly was not one of them.

The speechless Qing Shui could only look at the battle technique book that was inlaid with gold on the edges. The words ‘Fatal Strike’ was written on the cover of the book in seal script. Qing Shui picked it up and looked at it, there were only a few pages inside. Suddenly, he laughed.

Fatal Strike was an attack buff, it could increase the attack of battle techniques. Just like the Sure Kill Heavenly Techniques, it could only be used once a day, moreover, it needs to be cultivated. It was not important whether the attack was a physical or spiritual one, it would still increase the attack. The increase was dependent on the cultivation level.

On the book, it was said that cultivating to a higher level was not only a double in attack, however the later levels were not that easy to cultivate.

Qing Shui looked at it once and handed it to the Demon Lord, “This is for you!”

“No need, I have already memorized it.” The Demon Lord shook her head.

“Even if you have memorized it, I will still give it to you. I already took the other one, so treat this as a memento.” Qing Shui said without hesitation and handed it directly into her hand.

The Demon Lord looked at the man who was acting more shamelessly and getting more impertinent. However, she discovered that she did not feel anything particular about him. No man had ever acted this way in front of her.

He was not ashamed in front of the Demon Lord. He also tried his best to show the best side of himself to her.

Only Qing Shui would be so daring. After all, they had already done the most intimate thing that could happen. As his starting point, this was already an advantage to him.

The Demon Lord drew out her hand, naturally returning the “Fatal Strike” book without saying a word.

Qing Shui was relieved in his heart. Although he didn’t know what kind of feeling this was, he also did not know what she was thinking. Maybe it could not be considered as happiness or disappointment, but instead a bit of improvement.

Actually, Qing Shui was not certain whether he would have dared to pull out her hand to give her something directly. If it weren’t for those drawings, there was probably a high chance that she would have hit him. Fortunately, she did not have the heart to attack him because of those drawings.

The Demon Lord sighed within her heart. She didn't even know why she had to sigh.

“We should go over there and check things out. I imagine that those three elders would not be able to enter for a while. Let’s see how many boxes we can get.” Qing Shui stored the treasure box into the Realm of the Violet Jade Immortal and said.

This place was similar to the one before it. Qing Shui tried the same method as before to see if he could use some tool to bring the box over.

After he retrieved his Demon Binding Ropes, he threw it over. However, once the Demon Binding Ropes latched onto the treasure box, it was immediately repelled back…

The result was not unexpected for Qing Shui, though he was a bit depressed. He retrieved the empty treasure box that he had stored away earlier. He studied it for a while before he finally realized that a special type of metal was used to create the box. It could resist powerful abnormal effects, moreover, the material was extremely sturdy. It was an excellent crafting material.

Perhaps they had to reenact what they had done previously, but this had a huge risk. He could not come up with a better solution, so he summoned the Thunderous Beast again. He wanted to see if Thunderbolt had any effect on the Stone Beast or not.

After his experiment, Qing Shui could only retrieve the Thunderous Beast. The Stone Beast was immune to the Thunderbolt’s side effects.
